A former Kogi state governorship aspirant under the platform of All Progressive Congress (APC) and one time Commissioner for Health, Hon. Sulaiman Baba Ali has extended his condolences to the family of late Hon. Abubakar Danlami a.k.a Abdanis, who died yesterday.
In a condolence message sent to journalists in Lokoja, Baba Ali described the death of Abdanis as sudden and shocking.
The former Commissioner who prayed for the repose of Abdanis’s soul and extended his profound condolence to the immediate family, friends, Muslim ummah and the people of Lokoja Ward C in general.
He urged friends and family of Abdanis to take with equanimity his loss to death, describing death as an inevitable end for everybody.
Baba Ali said: “though it is very painful to loose somebody like Hon. Abdanis at that youthful age, but one clear lesson is the transient nature of life itself. It is not about Hon. Abubakar Danlami Abdanis, but about the fact that death is a certainty that must come to every living being.
“It is my fervent prayer that Allah will grant him Aljanat Firdausi and give the people of Ward C and Lokoja Community in general the fortitude to bear the loss. We also pray God to comfort his family and give them courage and hope.”
He also urged family members and supporters of the deceased to take heart and consider the death an act of Allah, saying the deceased lived a life of service, though very brief until he breathed his last on Saturday 9th of February 2019.
